Alli graduated with a BA in English and a concentration in Creative Writing. Prior to completing her degree, she switched majors 3 times, and consequently realized that pigeon-holing herself into a certain career path didn't make any sense. Post-graduation, she also grew tired of the 9-5 lifestyle and preferred flexible hours that allowed her to binge-watch "The Walking Dead" in the middle of the afternoon. Thus began Alli's freelance career in pursuit of writing, editing, painting, and illustration.

During her undergrad years, Alli was a staff editor for two campus publications: The Tartan, and the Princemere Poetry Series. Since graduating in 2012, Alli has done freelance writing for an art gallery, a storage company, a New England running magazine, a fashion blogger, and a few bizarre Craigslist people who she never wishes to write for again.

Alli is also an avid runner and runs for the Greater Boston Track Club. She is the Chief Editor of "Wingfoot," the Greater Boston Track Club quarterly newsletter. In case you're wondering about her times, she's run a mile in 5 minutes and 14 seconds. Alli's training permeates into her daily attitude and life goals. To Alli, running is a dedicated, focused mindset that can be applied to all activities she does. Alli trains competitively and maintains an organic, gluten-free diet.

By nature, Alli is a sarcastic, witty person. She enjoys authors such as David Sedaris and Samuel Beckett, and frequents different blogs run by ungrateful, trust-fund baby millenials (such as betcheslovethis.com). If Alli could hand-pick her own humor, she'd be a cocktail comprised of Bill Hader's Stefon from SNL, Amy Poehler's Leslie Knope, and Jimmy Kimmel's Youtube videos where he makes the adults who pretend they've eaten all their kids' Halloween candy.

Blogging is everything. If you don't have a blog, you're not relevant. Alli has blogged about everything from artists to storage tips to fashion finds. If you provide Alli with a topic, she will research the topic thoroughly (thanks to her rigorous AP style collegiate essays), and produce an informative, engaging blog post depending on what kind of audience the client is marketing to.

Article

38 Projects Completed

Alli's strength is article writing, specifically articles that feature people, important events, topics, or news stories. She loves writing each article with a well-rounded, journalistic approach by conducting research, interviews, or even a trip to the library to crack open a few dusty books on a certain topic.
